AQUANAUT

Welcome to Aquanaut, the Internet's first and largest online
magazine dedicated to the recreational and technical SCUBA diving community.
Aquanaut has been online since February 1993. Prior to use of
WWW technology, Aquanaut used a Gopher server for several months
to bring you a simple text and graphic magazine. We added WWW in late 1993
and dropped the Gopher service in mid-1994.

Aquanaut contained links to diving sites, equipment, techniques, clubs,
training agencies, fish information, libraries of photographs, and also several
popular mailing list forums, including
TechDiver. There was also a growing database of shipwreck information,
WreckDB.
In July 1996, we created
AquaCrawler: our own Web Crawler tool. At its peak AquaCrawler maintained
a database of links to thousands of other Web sites containg SCUBA information.

In March 2004, we decided to end Aquanaut due to the increasing time
and network resources needed to maintain it, not to mention the continual
abuse of the mailing lists. The Club Directory, the list of Training Agencies
and the TechDiver mailing list archive remain available; use the links
below to access them.
